Approval to add a course after the last date to add a course may only be granted in exceptional circumstances. Exceptional circumstances are those considered beyond your control. That is, a situation occurs that a reasonable person would consider is not due to the person’s action or inaction, either direct or indirect, and for which the person is not responsible. This situation must be unusual, uncommon or abnormal. A lack of understanding of Australian Government Legislation or University Policy is not considered to be beyond a person’s control.
